Your garden is looking so lovely Helen....poppies really don't last for very long do they...such a shame!
Such a pretty little cloth for your scones and I love that gorgeous new fabric...looking forward to seeing what it becomes. :)
The little house and tag are so sweet!
Enjoy those grandchildren now schools out!

Helen, your pincushion is so unique! Your flowers are beautiful and remind me of my Grandmother's garden. :)
Such a cute pincushion, I love it 😊
Such a cute pincushion, I love it 😊
Those scones look so appetising wrapped in their gingham cover.
Oh Helen, everything is gorgeous - I really need a kick up the bum and get my garden sorted and I'm sick of waiting for my stitchy mojo to come back :-( xx Have a lovely week xx
The pin cushion looks as sweet as candy. Very nice.
Your pincushion is so sweet! You come up with such lovely project ideas. I loved seeing all your flowers, what wonderful variety. I hope you're having a good week, Helen.
Your garden is wonderful so much colour. Your friend will be really pleased with your pin cushion.
Have a lovely week.
LOVE this little house & tag!!

Beautiful pics of your garden full of summer colourful gorgeous flowers. You are having a happy productive time. Keep doing all those things you enjoy xxx
Such a sweet little house and your garden is looking so full of colour, just beautiful xx
I so enjoyed seeing your arbor and the flowers growing.. the one flower that made me swoon was the pink poppy with the purple center.. oh my goodness.. what a pretty flower! I'll have to look for some seeds like yours. I adore your little sewn house pin cushion. I so enjoy reading your posts. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
You life is full of lovely colors, Helen! I love so much this new pincushion and roof is precious with the buttons! love your garden plants and yours jars with flowers ... I'm so happy to know that you spend some time with the children. Hope you've a nice week, dear Helen! A big hug from Catalonia!
That vintage jar is perfect for holding flowers.
Your garden is beautiful and your little house is just adorable!
Everything is so fresh and colorful and lovely. You certainly keep very, very busy. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
Just one word for your blog Helen ............. "GORGEOUS"
Love Carole from Rossendale, Lancashire xx
Your garden looks amazing, Helen. Those flowers look wonderful in that gorgeous vintage jam jar....where do you find such amazing pieces?
Cute pin cushion and I love the little cloth you made for your scones....so pretty!
What a stunning garden , I've told you before I am moving in .ii will happily sleep in the garden . Congratulations on your published work .
Your garden is producing such wonderful flowers. The house pin cushion is darling!
Oh! It seems you have a piece of heaven in your yard...😎💐🇬🇧💐Appreciate your time to share with us...
Hope you and your family enjoy many more brilliant summer days...
Take care 🇨🇦❤️
Great little house and tag! Your garden is looking glorious Helen. So many beautiful and colourful flowers. x
I'm swooning over your pink and pink and blue house! LOVE it. I got your book that has that pattern in it, for my birthday! I'm so happy! I am so drawn to those darling little houses.. too cute to use for a pin cushion! I would like to make several and hang them up somewhere. It's fun working with felt. Your gardens are just stunning and so bright and full of colors. My garden this year and flowers are getting eaten up by ear wigs.. they are horrible this year. Your flowers all look intact and lovely. I'm envious! Oh.. and love the vintage tin you used as a vase. Your blog just makes me feel good! Hugs.. Marilyn (Oregon)
Helen, you have outdone yourself, as always! That sweet little felt cottage and all your lovely flowers! I have a hard time growing anything here in the South U.S.A. as either the deer eat it or they burn up in the heat. I don't even want to be outside this time of year! LOL!
I love your sweet tag and I could probably handle that paper craft...so cute and would really come in handy for gifts too. I did not know that sweet peas had a scent. Now, I definitely need to grow some....or try. I love your poppy...I've never seen one in that color. Your little bun warmer is so pretty with the red gingham border and the new fabrics are so lovely and I can get Riley Blake here in the U.S....I need to check that out! What a lovely and inspiring post! Continue enjoying your Summer in the land of beautiful gardens! Hugs ~ Sam
Hi Helen! I'm stopping by from Marilyn's blog and as expected you did not disappoint. Such pretty crafts you have made, and your garden is absolutely lovely. It's a little bit of heaven on earth.
The gingham towel is so darling. I don't think I've ever seen binding like that. What a find!
Your vintage tin has inspired me to look for something like that for flowers. So pretty and far more interesting than a 'normal' vase.

Love the sweet pincushion, there is no place like home.

Love the hollyhock (I don't seem to have luck with them) and the sweet pin cushion. Sometimes I really miss the fabric stash I had. I love to look at your sewing projects!
Brenda
So sweetest projects and your garden is a paradise!
